938: 256 Chapter 2 938: 256 Chapter 2 “They turned the Third Prince into a Corpse General, what use is that?
So much blood…”
Cao Zhen then looked towards the iron chains, it was evident that these chains were for suppressing the formation of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect.
The chains, even now, still reeked of a thick scent of blood.
“The other party had broken the formation using fresh blood, but why use the blood of the Fourth Prince and two other individuals who, by their appearances, strongly resemble the Third and Fourth Princes?
They must be the other two princes of the Praying Heaven Dynasty.
Could it be that the blood of the princes of the Praying Heaven Dynasty is particularly special, or is there some other conspiracy here?”
Cao Zhen had been searching underground for a long time but found no trace of anything.
Having no choice, he had to leave the underground.
Although he was the State Preceptor of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, he was not versed in the art of governance.
Continuing to linger here was futile; he could only first inform the soldiers outside that there was no danger here, to stabilize the situation within the city first, then he set out towards the Capital City of the Praying Heaven Dynasty.
He knew far too little about the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect’s leader.
Perhaps the current Emperor knew something, and even if the Emperor did not know, the Grand Preceptor’s disciples were also in the Capital City, and he could inquire of them.
Moreover, to return to the Hundred Peaks Sect, he needed to pass through the Capital City.
While navigating the Flying Boat towards the Capital City, he started connecting to his disciples via the China Cloud, inquiring about their current situations.
Yan Yourong was progressing very smoothly.
However, things had gone completely off course when it came to Xiang Zi Yu.
“Master, who am I?
I am the protagonist, haven’t you seen that a protagonist never fails?
Now, Evil People Island is no more.
No, I should say the Evil People Path still exists, but now, the island listens to my orders.
All those unpardonably wicked on Evil People Island have been killed, and if possible, I could even develop Evil People Island into a sub-sect of our Hundred Peaks Sect.
What about the factions in the South Ocean?
They are all being obedient now.
Why wouldn’t they stop?
Yes, they all believed it.
Why did they believe?
Because Old Axe intervened, and who is Old Axe?
Of course, he’s the Axe Madman.
Master, both of you are incarnations of Great Ability, and you both said that in fifty years, our Eastern Wasteland will connect with the Central Five Provinces, so naturally, they all believed it.
Moreover, they said that by that time, our Eastern Wasteland will also depend much on our Hundred Peaks Sect.”
Xiang Zi Yu wasn’t lying.
The factions in the South Ocean and even many Immortal Sects from other dynasties knew that if the people of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty were not lying, then once the Eastern Wasteland is connected with the Central Five Provinces, they all would rely on the sects of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, especially the Hundred Peaks Sect with its several top-tier practitioners of the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.
After all, fifty years later, it would still be the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, and the strongest people in the world would still be at the Golden Core Stage!
After receiving the responses from the disciples, Cao Zhen proceeded towards the Capital City with peace of mind.
It was not long before he arrived in the Capital City.
As the central hub of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, the Capital City was always guarded by at least one of the Grand Preceptor’s disciples.
Cao Zhen did not know exactly how these disciples of the Grand Preceptor managed to guard the Capital City, perhaps it was done on a rotational basis, but upon his arrival, the disciple of the Grand Preceptor he met was an acquaintance, Yu Tuoyu.
As he had expected, the Emperor knew nothing about the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect.
However, upon learning about the plight of Ghost Province, he quickly dispatched officials there.
And as Yu Tuoyu listened to Cao Zhen’s inquiries, he took Cao Zhen to a secluded place.
After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, “The leader of the Blood-qi Demon Sect actually has some connections with our master.
Or perhaps, we should call her our Martial Great Aunt.”
“Martial Uncle?” Cao Zhen was confused for a moment, “Wasn’t it said that the Grand Preceptor obtained the legacy of a Great Ability and then rose to his position today?
How come it’s said now that the Grand Preceptor has connections with the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect?
And besides, the divine skills the Grand Preceptor practices are not those of Demonic Qi.”
“Indeed, the master obtained the legacy of a Great Ability, one that originated from the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect.
However, that Great Ability was an outcast of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect.
The master never revealed why our Martial Ancestor left the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect, but the feelings of the Great Ability towards the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect were very complex.
He was resentful towards the Blood-qi Demon Sect, yet, he couldn’t stand others targeting the Blood-qi Demon Sect.”
Cao Zhen suddenly realized, “So it’s a love-hate relationship?”
“Exactly, a love-hate relationship.” Yu Tuoyu nodded and continued, “That Great Ability might have had a serendipitous encounter, or maybe it was because of that serendipity that he left the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect, so his legacy is not entirely of the Demonic Path.
And after the master received the legacy of our Martial Ancestor and became the strongest in the world, he once sought the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect, demanding they comply with the laws he set.
And for reasons unknown, they knew of the master’s relationship with our Martial Ancestor, yet they did not disclose this matter publicly.
At that time, the leader of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect, upon hearing the master’s demands, outright refused him, even going so far as to strike.
Latterly, that leader of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect was naturally defeated by our master.
However, our master also said that in the Guardian Imperial Dynasty, indeed, looking over the entire Eastern Wasteland, the only one able to contend with him and put him under pressure was the leader of the Bleeding Tears Demon Sect, the foremost expert of the Eastern Wasteland aside from the master.”
